Bought those from your rec. Great tips, using them on my DZ4. Thanks! (Yes, I’m one of the five people on this earth that liked DZ4, lol)
Got mine today. After OG Zetian, which is my daily driver for 1.5 year, I found the PA02 a little bit warmer with the provided Comply tips. Used the same Akliam PD4 Plus for comparison. Just listened some usual tracks that I know (Daedric - Coldharbour, Andromida feat Daedric - Abandon). Need to test it thoroughly with other tracks as well that I also usually use for this purpose.
DZ4 is a good set
The PA02 doesn’t need a nuclear power plant to be pushed, in fact you don’t need more than 1.5vrms to get the most out of them. I tested this with different cables and sources, on single and bal outputs with low and high gain and there is no difference except in volume.
PD4 Plus has enough power to push HD600
Comply tips (black graph) destroy PA02’s highs to my ears and make overall presentation muddier and much less detailed.
Changed it to Sancai Wide. It changed a little bit, but need to have time to test it more.
I am not a foam fan at all I use brighter open bore tips BGVP W01 , AZLA Crystal, JVC Spiral Dots.
The PA02 for me doesn’t need taming
Thoose tips for me kill the bass as they were designed to relieve pressure and I like my bass!
For me, it doesn’t change the bass, but highlights the treble a bit. Using large size for left and medium for right.
I got those tips in last week!
Custom Blue-green Pula arrived Bass is good/strong. the rest of the sound…average in quality, let them warm up better.
I gave both spring tips and wide bore sancai. After a while and handing it to my sis.
I personally liked the wide sancai, it did affect the bass more in comparison to the balanced but I prefer less bass on mine so it worked out. My sister however prefers the spring tips and is opting to switch to em. Spring tips and Wide bore were close to each other to my ears but the spring tips added a bit more soundstage which I didn’t expect. Basically a win-win but I never tried it long enough to feel pressure stuff.
Loosey goosey
A small update, the sockets got a bit loose, I’ve honestly never ran into this problem before and it’s not like we run around and do crazy aerobics with em lol. Might message Pula but I’m not sure yet
I’m glad you found the right eartips, but I’m sorry about the loose sockets. Try contacting the shop, so far they have always been helpful and might give you the option of replacing them.
Mine are like that as well. Not that bad though,doesn’t bother me to much. Hasn’t effected sound
I clicked on the link and got this message.
And with all this talk about the Romanian translation of Pula, I got scared and clicked off.
This thread is getting wild I tell ya
Edit
Jokes aside, I don’t own this so perhaps throw this comment away, but I can’t imagine it being designed this way? and at that price, certainly worth getting back to the seller/manufacturer to see what’s up. Sorry for my gutter humour. I’ll see myself out for that one!
They really should change thier name I suggested a more politically correct.
I suggested “TNB” for Twig and Berries.
It’s cool lol, I guess overgrown man-child wriggling loose sockets could be taken erotically, I probs shouldn’t have named it loosey goosey maybe? I’m not sure why it was tagged 18+ so I’ll remember that next time.
Yeah it hasn’t done anything sound wise but I’m worried since my 14yo sister is using it now and I’d be lying if I said I didn’t treat all my stuff with reckless abandon at that age.
I’m gonna give em a message now, If I gotta send it back I’ll probably just call it there and at least I got an excuse to try new IEMs when that one breaks, hopefully not before I got money though
